We just loved our stay and plan to return next year!! The property on the lake was peaceful and relaxing. I loved kayaking and going out on the boat. The property owner communicates regularly and we had everything we needed to have a great time.

This is the second time staying here and we really liked it. Bonfires by the lake at night and fishing the many lakes in the area were highlights for us. The place is clean, the view is beautiful, and the Wi-Fi has been updated to a faster speed, which helped entertain us on the day we got rained out. We plan to stay here again next year!

The place was very cute. It had a lot of extras, toilet paper, body soap, trash bags, kayaks, and fire pit ready to go. Downside is the road noise and only one towel per guest.

We absolutely loved this property! It was the cleanest place we have ever stayed! All the essentials were there and organized in a very uncluttered manner. We really liked having the space to actually store our belongings/food. Made us feel like we were home! We appreciated the kayaks & firewood.

We enjoyed our stay at Ruth’s place! There were very thoughtful, unexpected touches such as chocolates on our pillows, fresh flowers on the table when we arrived, and a stack of wood already prepared and ready to light in the firepit! The lake is calm and serene, and overall location is a nice launching point to adventures throughout northwest Michigan. The cottage itself is as described; nothing fancy, but affordable, clean and adequate space for our family of five. Thank you Ruth!

We didn't know the key was in the lockbox.Difficult to get it out and replace. We had only used digital keypads before. Had a pleasant stay.
